Is Heinz Mayochup Available In The United States? Right Now, It's Up To You

You guys, I am beyond ready for all the endless barbecues that pair so well with spring and summer weather. If you're someone who needs the condiments to be on point in order to truly enjoy a good backyard get-together, then you are going to be so excited about about the latest product from Heinz. It's combination of two barbecue staples, but you might wonder where you can your hands on it. So, is Heinz Mayochup available in the United States?

Heinz began a Twitter poll on Wednesday, April 11 asking if U.S. condiment aficionados want this pre-made blend of ketchup and mayonnaise on grocery store shelves stateside. If the votes for "Pass the Heinz Mayochup" tick up to 500,000, then Heinz Mayochup will hit U.S. stores — and you can start planning all the new "mayochup" recipes your sauce-loving heart desires.

For those of you whose summer cookouts are depending on the release of Heinz Mayochup in the United States, then know the odds are looking pretty good. At the time of publishing, the "yes" votes for Heinz Mayochup are only 80,000 away from 500,000, according to Heinz. Nicole Kulwicki, Director of Marketing for Heinz, said in a emailed statement, "...it's looking like Heinz Mayochup has a strong chance of launching!" You can still vote on the Heinz Mayochup poll for two more days, so make your voice heard before April 15.

With the U.S. release of Heinz Mayochup looking like all but a sure thing, the next step is naming this new product. Kulwicki said in the statement,

The next question at hand is the final name for this delicious combination. We know our friends in Idaho and Utah are passionate about Fry Sauce, and we've seen lots of other great suggestions online, so if we get to 500,000 votes, we will be giving the nation a say in our final name.

While most of the existing names for the mayonnaise-ketchup combination exist in reality, there is one fictional reference to the mixture in the movie Step Brothers, when Will Ferrell's character, Brennan Huff, hogs the "fancy sauce" from his adult stepbrother, Dale Doback (played by John C. Reilly). It's a pretty funny scene — and I'd argue that "fancy sauce" should definitely be a contender for the name of the "mayochup".

No matter where you first heard of it or how you use it, the combination of mayonnaise and ketchup seems to be largely viewed as a delicious one. The most common point of contention appears to come from agreeing on what it should be called. When the "yes" votes for Heinz Mayochup reach 500,000, you can help decide which name best fits this new condiment staple.
